Google Social Network Floods

From Huffington Post:
If you were among the lucky people given a Google+ invite, treasure it. Though users were previously allowed to invite friends to try out Google's new social network, the search giant has since removed this option.

"We've shut down invite mechanism for the night. Insane demand. We need to do this carefully, and in a controlled way," said Vic Gundotra, Google's head of social. He announced the shutdown on (ironically) his Google+ profile late Wednesday night.

Google+ launched Tuesday to a small group of users and the service was initially invitation only, with users "tapped" by Google to be among the first given just 15 invitations to hand out to others in their social circle. But then users were given the ability to invite anyone Wednesday night, resulting in a high volume of new users. 

Jesus yet again Google proves that there isn't enough room on their nuts for everyone. Goodbye Zuckerberg, hello Google slaughtering Facebook. I want me an invite to this. Who out there has got me a Google+ invite? Hook it up come on.
